When the girl said this, she paused slightly and then continued:
"It was only later, when I grew up to five or six years old, that this special ability slowly faded away, and from then on I became just like the ordinary people around me."
"If it weren't for the words I suddenly heard today, I'm afraid this part of my memory would still be silent in the depths of my consciousness..."
When Jiang Fan heard this, he already vaguely understood what his senior sister wanted to express.
Everything she said was explaining one thing.
That is a person with excellent cultivation qualifications. Although he has not awakened his spiritual roots, he still behaved differently from ordinary people when he was young.
For example, my senior sister awakened the innate water spirit body.
Therefore, when she was very young, she could not help but soak her body in the river near her home.
From this scene, it can be speculated that other monks who have awakened different spiritual roots will also perform some similar strange behaviors when they were young.
For example, Ye Song, who has an innate golden spirit root, probably didn't like playing with his friends when he was three or four years old. Instead, he would play around his parents' iron farm tools every day.
Lei Xinghe, who has an innate thunder spirit root, might run out of the house every time it thunders or rains, staring at the wildly dancing horned dragons in the sky in a daze.
After these prodigies of heaven reveal these visions, the special abilities contained in their bodies will slowly fade away until they reach the age of five or six and gain some understanding.
Note that it does not disappear, but fades away.
This magical ability still remains in their bodies, and will be revealed again when their spiritual roots are awakened.
Thinking of this, Jiang Fan already figured out something.
He nodded and said to the long-bearded monk in front of him:
"Okay, go ahead and talk."
After hearing this, the long-bearded monk continued what he had said before and continued:
"... Just as Senior Sister Yue Ling said just now, these extremely talented monks will initially show their prowess at a very young age."
"It's just that because most mortals are ignorant, children with such extraordinary talents are often ignored when they reveal their strangeness. They are simply considered to be a little unique."
"Of course, senior sister Yue Ling's amazing phenomenon of immersing her whole body in water without suffocating will definitely still be noticed."
"We don't know what the situation is like in other sects, but our Lingxin Valley releases sect tasks every year to allow disciples to walk in the secular world."
"While promoting the name of the sect everywhere, look for such a child. If found, bring him back to the valley."
When Sikong Yueling heard this, he nodded gently and said:
"That's right. I remember that the reason why my teacher took me back to the Spiritual Heart Valley was because when I was walking in the mortal world, I passed by the town where my family lived. By coincidence, I learned about the vision I had when I was a child from my parents. .”
Hearing this, Jiang Fan nodded.
It turns out that my senior sister joined Lingxin Valley in this way...
He looked at the long-bearded monk standing aside and motioned for him to continue.
The long-bearded monk understood and continued:
"Although the valley can recruit some geniuses through this method, compared to the large number of mortals, there are too few monks in our Lingxin Valley who can do this."
“There are many places where I don’t have the energy to get involved.”
"Therefore, in addition to issuing sect missions, the sect also adopted another method."
"The monks in the valley will come forward and borrow the power of the secular dynasty to search for them in a regulated manner and gather these children who showed special abnormalities when they were young."
"Every once in a while, a special person will visit and take these children back to the valley."
"It's just that a new problem has arisen."
"Without the process of monks using their spiritual sense to distinguish the truth from falsehoods spoken by mortals, there have been a large number of parents who want their children to become monks and deliberately fabricate their children's behavior when they were young in an attempt to get away with it."
"After being tricked several times, Gu Nei decided not to rush back to Gu Nei after the concentration, but to wait until they grow up and awaken their spiritual roots before bringing them back."
“These young children are a mixed bag, and no one knows which of them are really talented people with pure spiritual roots or dual spiritual roots, which ones are mediocre people with three spiritual roots or pseudo-spiritual roots, and which ones have more than four spiritual roots in their bodies. , the miscellaneous spiritual roots that cannot be awakened at all.”
“As a result, a new type of handicap was subsequently derived.”
"That is to bet on what type of spiritual roots these children who have not yet awakened their spiritual roots but are about to awaken will have after they awaken."
"This kind of handicap is called Linggen Guessing."
Hearing this, Jiang Fan couldn't help but show excitement on his face despite his previous speculations.
By using luck to modify the system, you can directly see what the opponent's spiritual roots that have not been awakened look like.
This type of handicap is simply tailor-made for you.
He took a deep breath, composed himself, and with bright eyes, asked the long-bearded monk in front of him:
"Do you know where the locations for opening this kind of handicap are?"
The long-bearded monk heard the excitement in Jiang Fan's tone.
At this time, he was already vaguely aware of the other person's thoughts, and he suspected in his heart that this mysterious young man with a strange face might not be a fellow person with the same hobbies as him.
Thinking of this, the long-bearded monk's gambling addiction was suddenly aroused.
He rolled his eyes, coughed dryly, and tentatively said in his reply:
"My subordinates naturally know these places. Do you want to see them, senior brother?"
"If that's the case, I dare to ask you, when you go, can you take me with you?"
When Jiang Fan heard this, he sighed inwardly.
This guy pretended to be so serious before, but now he couldn't help but reveal his true nature.
An old gambler through and through.
But then again, I really need a guide who is familiar with the situation.
If you simply asked him about the location and then ran over like a dumbass, your eyes would go dark and you wouldn't understand anything.
Thinking of this, Jiang Fan looked at the long-bearded monk, with a strange smile on his lips, nodded, and said:
"If you have this idea, it's okay to come, but... after you get to the place, you must explain the secrets here clearly to me, and you can't hide any secrets."
"If you behave well, I can give you some spiritual stones as a reward. The number will never be less than this number."
While saying this, Jiang Fan stretched out his right hand and raised his index finger in front of the other party.
Seeing this, the long-bearded monk asked hesitantly:
"Ten...ten spirit stones?"
Jiang Fan smiled, shook his head, and replied:
"I guessed wrong, it's a hundred."
When the long-bearded monk heard this, he slowly opened his mouth. After a brief moment of daze, his face showed an expression of ecstasy.
He didn't expect that the other party would not only agree to his request so easily, but would even want to give him a hundred spirit stones as a reward.
I am just an inner disciple of Lingxin Valley, and my monthly basic salary is twelve spirit stones.
Even though he had extra income from patrolling Yueling Island, his total monthly income was only fifteen spirit stones.
In other words, the reward given by the other party is already equivalent to his entire income for half a year.
