Zhang Xuezhou's destination was not in Dong's Mansion, nor did he return to the guest house. Instead, he carried Rong Tianding on his back to the restaurant where he had gone before.
This is where Rong Tianding mentioned the different aspects of guiding the "Grave Sutra".
At this time, Rong Tianding was not completely awake, but was unconsciously repeating the "Grave Sutra" in a low voice.
This is obviously a good sign.
Compared to the fact that his body has no cold breath at all, Rong Tianding does have signs of returning to his soul.
Rong Tianding's body was placed on the ground, and Zhang Xuezhou muttered, constantly releasing the soul-collecting technique that had been ineffective against Ren Yisheng.
Regardless of whether it is useful or not, or what role it can play, he will use any method that can be used.
Rong Tianding's low chanting was accompanied by Zhang Xuezhou's low chanting.
The sun's rays rose from the east, and people began to flow through the streets.
Everything that happened in the palace was far away from the world of ordinary people, and the darkness of the night also obscured everything. Today, Chang'an City still has people coming and going, and many people are running for their own lives.
Several and a half taels of money fell to the ground, and then rolled down in front of Zhang Xuezhou.
"If you are sick, go see a doctor!"
The kind-hearted person who passed by couldn't help but yelled at him when he lost his money, which made Zhang Xuezhou raise his head and squeeze out an ugly smile.
"There is... money!"
Rong Tianding, who was lying on the ground, stopped mumbling, and there were also some different words in his mouth.
Rong Tianding even stretched out his hand, trying to catch the crisp sound of half a tael of money falling to the ground.
"Cousin!"
Zhang Xuezhou shouted, from despair to hope, and now to surprise, he has undoubtedly gone through an extremely difficult psychological journey.
He himself has experienced strong winds and waves, but this is the first time that Zhang Xuezhou has experienced such a close relationship between life and death.
Rong Tianding's eyes are still a little dull, but being able to get money out of reciting tomb sutras has undoubtedly begun to return to normal.
Zhang Xuezhou was overjoyed and quickly helped Rong Tianding, who had regained some vitality.
"We have fewer illnesses and fewer disasters..."
He murmured in his mouth, feeling that Rong Tianding had passed the life-and-death hurdle.
He is not a person who forgets about food but not about fighting, but he is very unpredictable when it comes to accidents.
Just like the rising sun brings about the revival of all things, when the sunshine clears away the gloom, it also clears away the haze in Zhang Xuezhou's heart.
But Zhang Xuezhou did have a lot of imprints on his heart.
At this time, he was not so eager to seek to increase his strength and pursue various powerful means.
In this era, it is good to practice strength, but there are too many people who are better than Zhang Xuezhou, and he is currently suffering from physical problems. Even with hard work, there is a limit to the limit he can reach.
Zhang Xuezhou's ideas turned to metaphysics.
Ordinary metaphysics is like making money from the left eye and misfortune from the right eye. It has no effect and can only be used to satisfy your cravings.
But advanced metaphysics involves 'luck', which also affects a person's destiny, and even affects other people.
However, there are very few people who are proficient in this kind of metaphysics. Even erudite people like Dong Zhongshu have never learned it, and the influence of contents such as tomb scriptures is limited.
"The learning of Huang Lao, the learning of Yin and Yang, the learning of Fuxi Xiangmen..."
Various experiences kept lingering in Zhang Xuezhou's heart. Combining his own possessions with what he had learned in reality, Zhang Xuezhou decided to dig into this metaphysical power.
He hoped that the tomb sutra would not only fulfill a wish, but that the power of this wish would accompany him.
Not to mention good luck all the time, he at least needs to avoid bad luck.
Zhang Xuezhou’s thoughts are not empty talk.
Not to mention that he has tapped into this power of metaphysics, whenever Zhang Xuezhou uses the art of identifying people to see thousands of people in the world, he will know who is destined to be rich and noble, and who has caused trouble and needs to keep a certain distance.
Dong Zhongshu mentioned that getting to know noble people can improve his luck. This method of differentiation will definitely allow him to get in touch with noble people.
The art of Dingren is only the starting point for his pursuit of the power of metaphysics, not the end of his research.
Zhang Xuezhou believes that as he continues to dig, he will definitely gain more insights and be exposed to more knowledge, thus getting closer to his goal.
After experiencing the baptism of modern society, he is obviously more organized in summarizing knowledge.
Moreover, he is not a stickler for rules, nor does he cling to the knowledge of one school of thought.
Like Dong Zhongshu, he will learn more and apply more, and he will also seek to innovate.
From a person who only knows how to learn from others, he will slowly adjust to a person who is not only limited to learning but also explores the way forward. This is the change in Zhang Xuezhou's attitude towards life that he has learned from his experiences.
His cultivation level is neither high nor low, and his knowledge is neither too much nor too little.
In the nascent stage of this life transformation, this is all just right.
Ren Sheng was probably at his age when he started thinking about moving forward, and Dong Zhongshu was only a few years older than him when he tolerated thousands of revisions in practice.
At the beginning of cultivation, those ancestors may have been younger and had less knowledge.
"Cousin...cousin..."
Rong Tianding held the two copper plates tightly and shook his head vigorously, his speech still unclear.
He felt that he had some more memories, but some of them were blurred, and his mind was like a fog.
"Eight pounds of dog meat, two pounds of beef and one chicken in the restaurant cost us a total of one hundred and twenty-two and a half taels!"
When being supported by Zhang Xuezhou, Rong Tianding felt that many experiences were being restored, and he could even feel that he had recited the tomb sutras on this road.
Bits and pieces of memories continue to revive, and Rong Tianding's revived memories continue to push forward.
This gradually reminded him of last night's experience.
He remembered his protruding teeth, his stiff body, the thin black hair growing like mold all over his body, and everything he saw in a blur.
"I felt like I was very powerful. I seemed to be holding my breath to death. Then I thought about that universe. I seemed to have stepped into a long river and found my normal self yesterday. Then I woke up... woke up. Got it!"
Everything he experienced last night was like a dream to Rong Tianding, and as the nightmare broke, he found himself again.
He recited his knowledge in a low voice, and continued to swallow the meat porridge from the restaurant to restore his body.
It wasn't until his stomach was five minutes full and his body continued to regain consciousness that Rong Tianding noticed something strange in his body.
There were countless thin holes, but they were filled with things that looked like silk threads, making his body feel like he was wearing a piece of soft armor.
Rong Tianding could feel that this 'soft armor' seemed to be absorbing the remaining yin energy in his body, and was constantly swallowing up the yin energy. Even the mana derived from his body was slowly integrated into it, constantly enriching the 'soft armor' protective power.
"This is formed by drinking a treasure for you. It only makes your practice more difficult, but it should be able to play some good roles. It is more beneficial than harmful!"
Putting aside what he was thinking, Zhang Xuezhou also listened carefully to everything Rong Tianding said.
This made him feel that the two of them had escaped major disasters, but minor disasters obviously still existed.
For example, the ancestral dragon essence and blood provided by the woman may have possible consequences. If it were more conspicuous, it might attract the attention of some people in the court, and it might also shorten Rong Tianding's lifespan.
"But there is a good thing now!"
Rong Tianding has some problems with his body and practice, but the biggest good thing is that the leader of the Zijiao School has died. As long as Rong Tianding practices in the Zijiao School and is at the forefront, no one will be able to control him because of his cultivation skills.
This is what he witnessed with his own eyes when Rong Tianding had mental abnormalities, witnessed Shi Wudao reciting scriptures, and also witnessed Shi Wudao being shot and killed by Li Guang.
The biggest backdoor of this school's cultivation has undoubtedly been closed. In addition, the imperial court had previously encircled and suppressed the Shijiao school, and there were probably very few survivors.
As long as he can find Xu Ji and others to inherit the inheritance, Rong Tianding will not need to get caught up in the sect's internal struggles like he and Wu Chao, and he can have a smooth journey from now on.
