Everyone says that every person on earth corresponds to a star in the sky. So which star corresponds to my Shen Xiu? So which one does the destined one correspond to?
Suddenly, his calm heart stirred up trouble again.
Why is Zhou Xing the destined one? Why not me, Shen Xiu?
Is human destiny really destined by God?
Shen Xiu shook his head. He has always been a person who does not believe in destiny. Countless cultivators from poor families feel that being from a high-ranking family means they are superior to others, and wearing scarlet and purple is the exclusive preserve of high-ranking families. If cultivators from poor families want to gain a good background, they have to rely on these high-ranking families.
But Shen Xiu didn't believe in this evil, and never did!
He has had far-reaching ambitions since he was a child. He was precocious since he was a child. When he stood on the street and saw the ceremonial style of King Langya when he returned to the feudal country, he secretly made an ambition in his heart. One day, I, Shen Xiu, should be like this!
A real man should not eat for the five tripods, but cook for the five tripods!
He first pursued Cui Zhu, the eldest daughter of the Boling Cui family who he met by chance while out for fun. He originally thought that with his talents and abilities, as well as his affinity with Cui Zhu, he could get help from the Cui family. But the development of things still gave him a blow and made him realize the reality more thoroughly.
It turned out that after Wang Rong gave him that comment, he was able to successfully become a member of Langya Domestic History, for which he was still grateful to Wang Rong. Of course, what he didn't know was that this was the daughter of the Cui family who was about to marry the Shi family in order to compensate, and they specially invited Wang Rong, a family friend, to support him. Later, he finally realized that there was another meaning hidden behind Wang Rong's comment to him, and all his gratitude and goodwill towards Wang Rong disappeared.
Just when he thought that he could only do a job in the county under that comment in his life, he came into contact with Zhao Wang Huangfulun.
In the eyes of many people in the Jin Dynasty, King Zhao Huangfulun himself is a joke!
King Zhao Huangfulun was the sixth son of Huangfu Yi, Emperor Xuan of Jin Dynasty, and the great-uncle of the current emperor Huangfu Zhong. At that time, Huangfu Yi had eight sons, who were known as "Eight Huangfu Dragons, fish with eyes mixed with pearls". Huangfulun is the fish eye here. Not to mention the two first-grade black-robed grand masters who succeeded Huangfu Yi in power in Zhou Dynasty, let’s talk about the remaining four, including three second-grade purple robes and two third-grade red robes. Only Huangfulun is still a fourth-grade blue-robed cultivator to this day!
Perhaps for countless cultivators from poor families, cultivating to the fourth level blue robe is enough to be proud of. But what is the status of the Huangfu family? In addition to Huangfu Yi himself being the peerless twins who are most praised by everyone, he also has a younger brother who is a first-grade black-robed grandmaster, and two sons who are first-grade black-robed grandmasters. Since ancient times, the prosperity of cultivation in this family has never been greater than that of the Huangfu family. With the Huangfu family's understanding of cultivation and their almost endless resources, many people joked that even a pig born in the Huangfu family would be able to cultivate to the sixth level as long as he could connect to one lineage.
Huangfulun was not only ridiculed by everyone for his cultivation, but also for ordinary things in life, he often made jokes. During the Yuankang period of Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty, a worker from You Shangfang stole a piece of the Queen's royal fur and hawked it in Shangluo. He happened to be encountered by King Zhao Huangfulun. Huangfulun saw that the fur coat was really beautiful, so he wanted to buy it back for his mother as a birthday gift. As a prince, it was naturally inconvenient for him to buy it himself, so he asked a subordinate of the palace to buy it. Later, when the Luoyang Order investigated the case and learned that the stolen goods were finally bought back to Prince Zhao's house by Huangfulun, public opinion was in an uproar. Emperor Wu of Jin really regarded him as his own uncle, so he finally reduced his fiefdom in two counties and transferred him to General Anbei. That is to say, after he was transferred to General Anbei and when he was laughed at by countless cultivators, Shen Xiu met Huangfulun when he went to General Anbei's mansion for business.
Everyone looked down on Zhao Wang Huangfulun, but not Shen Xiu! Every time Shen Xiu saw King Zhao Huangfulun, Huangfulun could feel that this person truly respected him!
Everyone makes jokes about King Zhao Huangfulun behind his back, but Shen Xiu praises King Zhao Huangfulun behind his back!
So, naturally, King Zhao Huangfulun brought Shen Xiu over from Langya Kingdom and became his confidant. From then on, Shen Xiu became the person whom King Zhao Huangfulun most trusted and relied on.
Everyone said that King Zhao Huangfulun was not smart enough, but Shen Xiu said that this was because King Zhao had a pure and simple mind.
Everyone said that King Zhao Huangfulun would not handle things when they encountered them, but Shen Xiu said that this was because King Zhao was not arbitrary and did his own thing and was good at accepting advice.
Everyone said that King Zhao Huangfulun had no independent opinions, but Shen Xiu said that this was because King Zhao was kind-hearted and good at taking care of others.
In fact, Shen Xiu sometimes looked down on King Zhao Huangfulun in his heart, but at the same time he was very grateful to King Zhao Huangfulun. It can be said that without Zhao Wang Huangfulun's trust in him and his obedience, Shen Xiu would not be where he is today.
In Shen Xiu's view, Huangfulun was actually a very good lord. He is kind-hearted but not unkind, and he is easy-going and generous to his subordinates, even too generous. Even if he was caught in person and not on duty when on duty, Zhao Wang Huangfulun would only ask questions, and there would be no punishment afterwards.
Whenever Shen Xiu persuaded King Zhao Huangfulun about this, Huangfulun always said that these subordinates were old and young, and it was not easy. In peacetime, it's not a big deal even if it delays some things if you are not on duty occasionally.
On the other hand, Shen Xiu often severely punished those subordinates who were used to being lax in Prince Zhao's palace. Over time, when working under King Zhao, no one was afraid of King Zhao Huangfulun, but everyone was afraid of Shen Xiu.
Under the starry sky, Shen Xiu recalled her experiences over the years, and then thought of Zhou Xing, the destined person. He suddenly felt that time was running out for him.
Counterattacks from high-ranking families will always come, and Shen Xiu knows it very well.
He, King Zhao Huangfulun, Queen Jia Zhi and others have actually supported the forces of the poor family in recent years. This sentence is actually not quite accurate. It was Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty who was worried that aristocratic families would become powerful, just like the Shang Dynasty and the Zhou Dynasty, and eventually the royal family had to give way to other families with greater ability to win people's hearts. The only reason why today's empty-name emperor Huangfu Zhong won the heart of Emperor Wu of Jin was that Xing Quebiao would insist on following the route of Emperor Wu of Jin. After Huangfu Zhong went crazy, it was Queen Jia Zhi who maintained this line. It was precisely because Shen Xiu saw this clearly that she persuaded King Zhao Huangfulun to seek refuge with Queen Jia Zhi, who was almost alone. So of course, King Zhao Huangfulun was quickly regarded as someone to rely on by Queen Jia Zhi, and his status has been improving in recent years.
But this is not a long-term solution after all!
Shen Xiu knew in her heart that Queen Jia Zhi was actually an ordinary woman. She had almost no other ideas except that she wanted to make her son a prince. Shen Xiu cannot rest assured about leaving his destiny to a woman like Jia Zhi.
The shortcomings of King Zhao Huangfulun in the minds of countless people are exactly the greatest strengths in Shen Xiu's mind.
He is simple enough, generous enough, and empowered enough.
Suddenly, a bold thought suddenly came into Shen Xiu's mind: Maybe it's time to push Zhao Wang Huangfulun's position up a step!
Once this thought appeared, Shen Xiu's heart couldn't help but heat up.
Huangfu Zhong had gone crazy, Huangfu Yu was deposed as a commoner, Queen Jia Zhi's son Huangfu Mi was not talented enough, and Huangfu Zhong only had two sons.
Suddenly, Shen Xiu knew how to plan and operate.
Suddenly, Shen Xiu seemed to see himself becoming a person in the future who was less than one person and more than ten thousand people. He seemed to see himself vigorously promoting cultivators from poor families, letting poor families in the world sing about his great achievements, and making the high-ranking families no longer dominate the sky with one hand.
Destiny?
Huh, I, Shen Xiu, should also be the destined one! I control my own life!
Thinking of this, Shen Xiu turned around and flew towards Prince Zhao's Mansion.
I don't know how long it took, but after Zhou Xing turned through the last page of "Shu Lu", he looked at the eight books stacked next to him with satisfaction, and finally no longer wanted to read any more. In the past two days, he had read various books day and night, and Zhao Yu provided food and drink for him. It was a rare occasion for him to be served by someone.
His gains were huge!
The body-refining, qi-refining, and god-refining techniques in this world are as vast as the ocean, but in the final analysis, body refining is nothing more than refining the skin and flesh on the outside, and refining the muscles and bones on the inside. Going deeper, it cleanses the marrow and changes the blood, making every part of the body extremely tough and infinitely powerful. Refining qi is nothing more than cultivating the spiritual veins to purify the spiritual energy, and then refining the qi sea. The same is true for Lian Shen. General methods are just applications summarized by predecessors. They do not tell practitioners why they practice in the way they do and whether they can be improved. However, books such as "Qi Refining Collection" and "Physical Refining Summary" are the knowledge summarized by the senior masters to tell why you should practice in this way and why not in that way.
He can now confirm that the original system of this world is exactly the same as the online game system he played in that world. It’s just that after so many years of development, many things have changed. For example, some techniques for refining the body, refining the energy, and refining the spirit, such as the transformation of runes.
For someone like him who has already reached the top, many changes are not progress, but quite the opposite. Zhou Xing admires the sage Kong Ke and Kong who is highly respected in this world. Kong Ke, a figure from the Great Yin era, had an unrivaled understanding of various systems of cultivation, even better than a god-level player like Zhou Xing.
Could it be that this guy is also a time traveler?
Thinking of this, he smiled hoarsely, shook his head, and was about to stand up, but at this moment, a beautiful face appeared in front of him that made people feel extremely sunny and comfortable.
"Are you Zhou Xing?" the woman said, her voice as sweet and moving as an oriole leaving the valley.
"Who are you?" Zhou Xing then noticed that Zhao Yu was no longer around.
"My name is Wang Tianyun." The woman smiled, with a slight dimple on her lips, "Wang Tianci is my brother. My brother said that he left in a hurry that day and didn't think carefully, so he gave you a few red berries, especially to You're in trouble. He'll be relieved to see you're okay."
Zhou Xing felt warm in his heart: "Thank you brother for your concern."
"You are so awesome." Wang Tianyun said again, "I have actually been here for a long time, but since you have been reading, I haven't come to disturb you."
"What's so great about me?" Zhou Xing wondered in his mind. He was just flipping through a book.
"I can't read these books after reading them for a while. I can't understand many of them at all. My brother often picks up a book and reads it for several hours. I always feel that my brother is already powerful enough. , I didn’t expect you to be better than him. Hey, by the way, can you really understand the words in these books?”
"It should be no problem." Zhou Xing said modestly.
In Zhou Xing's opinion, he felt that he was being modest by adding the word "should", but in Wang Tianyun's ears, it meant something else.
"I don't believe it." What is Wang Tianyun's background? Although she has a poor understanding, she has been exposed to too many things that ordinary monks cannot. She thought to herself that only the two great masters Wang Rong and Wang Yan in the family dared to say that they understood sixty-seven out of ten of these books. The young man in front of her, who looked not even older than her, dared to say that it was no problem. This man is so crazy! Why does my brother still want to be friends with him? She was dissatisfied with a look of disbelief on her face. She randomly picked up a book in front of him, which was "Qi Refining Collection". She flipped through a few pages and asked, "This is enough for Yang to move the stomach." This article on the Tianshu point says: 'The movement of thunder and rain is full of energy', how do you say this?"
Zhou Xing thought to himself that Wang Tianyun was indeed from the Wang family in Jinyang, and a girl asked such a professional question. Little did he know that this was a question that a third-grade Zhupao cultivator of the Wang family asked Wang Rong and Wang Yan during a Spring Festival in the presence of these two great masters.
"What is 'thunder' in the human body? What is 'rain'?" Zhou Xing asked back.
Wang Tianyun was at a loss in her heart and could only answer timidly based on the knowledge she had remembered from the past: "Thunder belongs to wood, rain belongs to water, the liver belongs to wood, and the kidneys belong to water." She looked at Zhou Xing and shook her head slightly with a smile, feeling guilty. He stuck out his sweet tongue and said, "Oh, am I right? I couldn't listen to a word of this when my family talked about it before."
"It is true that the liver governs wood and the kidneys govern water, but at first glance you are memorizing it by rote. Reiki originally has all five elements. So the aura that passes through which acupoints can be regarded as thunder? The aura that passes through which acupoints can be seen as water. ?”
As soon as Zhou Xing said these words, Wang Tianyun's expression immediately changed.
She suddenly remembered that when her great-grandfather Wang Rong gave rare lectures to the Wang family, he had a few words that were very similar to Zhou Xing's words just now, but Wang Rong also emphasized that it was normal for you not to understand, but you must write them down. , when one of you understands it one day in the future, then your cultivation will have reached a higher level.
She suddenly remembered that she had read some journals about gods and monsters before, saying that some evil monks would practice a body-seizing technique. When one's own life is approaching, a child with good qualifications will be selected to seize the body, so that he can live in two lives and continue to practice by retaining the knowledge and memory of his previous life.
Wouldn't this person be in the kind of situation where his body was taken away from him?
Thinking of this, Wang Tianyun's beautiful face was suddenly filled with panic. When he spoke again, his voice was already full of trembling: "You, you, couldn't have been reborn, right? You are now in the library of Hongdu College. , don’t mess around!”
