After returning to the city, I used the silver I got from the fairy to enter an inn, ate something and stayed in a room.
'Now, he can be considered a real person. '
Sitting on the bed, looking at the bright moon by the window, today's moonlight seems to be particularly beautiful as my mood improves. Looking at the bright moon, I thought of my family, my hometown, and everything in the past. I couldn't help but feel the yin and yang in my eyes.
'Mom and dad, Yue'er is still alive and will take good care of herself. How did you live in that world? '
'I heard the fairy say, those monsters. Death, death, death, almost no more. Although the child did not do it himself. But a great revenge must be avenged. May your spirits in heaven rest in peace. '
'My child always remembers what I promised you. I will live well and take care of myself. '
My thoughts are flying and scattered in thousands of places. Looking back on all the experiences I have had, including joy and sorrow, is a taste of life.
'If I had been stronger back then, I wouldn't have been like this when the monsters invaded. If I were stronger, I wouldn't be a slave. Unfortunately, there is no if in this world. '
'Think so. In this world, being weak is a sin. All things are equal if they are said to be equal, and they are not equal if they are said to be unequal. '
I carefully took out the books and read them carefully.
Fang opened the "Essentials of Cultivation", and several big characters came out:
[Tao transforms into thousands, and thousands return to Tao. The so-called practice means cultivating the Tao. If you want to cultivate the Tao, you must first cultivate your mind. The understanding of Tao is the heart of Tao. Who is to say whether the world is right or wrong? If you follow your own path, your path will become more stable. ...]
'It's true, there are not so many right and wrong in this world. If you want to cultivate the Tao, you must first cultivate your mind. This Taoist mind is very different for everyone. Then, what is my Taoist heart? '
Under the moonlight, there is a figure, holding a book with both hands, looking at it dreamily, as if in a dream. While reading, I imagined that I had entered the world of immortality and became the person in the book. Traveling around the nine states, visiting the eight wastelands, helping those in danger and those in need, performing chivalrous acts of justice, loving and hating. Experience all kinds of things, see the colorful world, and experience the world in all its forms.
Unknowingly, the candle turned into a pool of tears, and the moon hid not wanting to be seen. A cockcrow brought him back from his fantasy.
At first glance, it was almost dawn and it was time to go to bed. Tianyue only hates that she is a mortal and lacks physical strength. If possible, I would like to read the book in one sitting without any delay.
Put the book carefully and put it next to the pillow. Soon, he fell into sleep.
In the dream, it was wonderful again, as if I had personally experienced the life of cultivating immortals.
I slept for a long time this time. Dreams are beautiful enough. When I dreamed that I had become the Supreme Being of All Dharmas, I was woken up by a noise downstairs.
"Really, it's just that you don't get what you want in reality. It's easy to get what you want in a dream even once, but it doesn't last long. What on earth is going on? It's so noisy!"
When I opened my eyes, I saw that those things were still there. I looked out the window and saw the setting sun.
The noise continued, making him want to see what was going on.
Pushing open the door and coming to the corridor, I could hear it more clearly.
Look down and see clearly. It was a couple with a little girl who knelt down in front of the shopkeeper, bursting into tears and saying something pleading.
The shopkeeper's face was very ugly. He wanted to refuse but couldn't bear it. The guests watched the excitement from the sidelines, not saying anything related to their own interests, but discussing other people and things lively.
Tianyue listened carefully and understood the reason.
The couple had no food to eat, so they came to ask the shopkeeper for some food. The shopkeeper didn't say anything and gave it to them. Later, the two people saw the benefits and thought about it. Then he went to beg the shopkeeper and asked if there was any shortage of people here. If there is no shortage here, know where the shortage is, introduce them to them, and find a job to make a living. He also begged the shopkeeper to find a home for his daughter to live as a slave in exchange for a few taels of silver.
In this way, the shopkeeper is naturally unwilling and doesn't know what to do. The girl just cried and didn't say anything. The couple knelt down to the shopkeeper and begged.
'You are in your prime, but your whole body is vain. The result of a combination of booze and bad things. Poor that girl, born into such a family. '
'Looking at the shopkeeper's behavior, it turns out it's the good guys who are easier to bully. Tao is not Tao, heaven is not heaven, man is not man. This world is like this, but there is nothing beautiful about it. Are people's expectations too high, or is reality just like this? '
I don't want to see this bad situation, it's noisy here again. Tianyue went downstairs and called the waiter.
"My guest! What do you need?"
"You prepare a table of decent food and wine for me to send to that person. Then pick out two suitable clothes for that girl. If there are more, consider them as your hard work."
He took out a piece of silver and gave it to the younger brother. The other party looked at it and laughed along with his eyebrows.
"Sure! Please rest assured, sir, I will definitely do as you are told!"
After finishing it, thinking that I had not lived a normal life for a long time, I went to the street to relax.
The streets were busy with people coming and going. I haven't experienced anything like this for a long time. It's familiar, strange, and nostalgic at the same time, it's very complicated.
'As expected of the capital city, it can still be so lively at this time. '
Wandering around, I found a bunch of people setting up somewhere in the big square, and there was a sign next to it that said, "No crowds allowed to enter." A lot of people gathered around the big square, talking and looking at it. It looked very prosperous and grand, as if something big was going to be done here.
I was very curious, so I asked an old man on the side: "Old man, may I ask, what is the big event? It is so grand!"
The old man turned his head, looked at Tianyue, smiled, showing a few missing teeth, and slowly said: "Young master, you are not from Liangcheng, are you?"
"The boy is indeed not a local. He just passed by this place by chance and asked the old man to explain it."
"Hahaha, no wonder you don't know, this is an extremely important event. At this time every year, the immortal masters of Qingyang Sect will come to our country of Liang to help test children over six years old in major cities for free. Spiritual roots. They will come to Liangcheng tomorrow, so they cannot be neglected and must be grand."
"I see, the boy has learned a lesson."
"This spiritual root! You must have heard of it. It is necessary to become a monk. If you have spiritual roots, everything will be very different! The world of immortals is wonderful and extraordinary just by hearing about it and imagining it. If you can experience it yourself , I don’t know how exciting it will be.”
As the old man spoke, there seemed to be a light in his eyes, as if he was thinking and regretting.
"It's a pity, old man, I don't have any great blessings or spiritual roots, so I can only live like this for the rest of my life. Moreover, this life is coming to an end, just like the sunset, it is about to set. I can't do it in this life. In the next life, if there is a next life, old man, I also want to go to that world."
The old man sighed. Looking at those busy people, Tianyue remembered that she was the same way in Yunshang City. She happily queued up for testing with a hint of uneasiness, and then came back full of disappointment.
No spiritual roots!
He and other children have the same ending.
Although it is possible for a mortal couple to give birth to a child with spiritual roots, the number is too few after all.
Many people’s dreams of becoming immortals are buried when they are six years old. After all, I have to admit that I am just an ordinary human being.
However, although the number of spiritual roots is surprisingly small, there are still some. No one is six all the time, but there are people who are six all the time. This kind of thing is always a big deal.
It is said that when one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven. A child whose spiritual root is detected, no matter how bad the spiritual root is, is a monk after all, and his status is naturally not comparable to that of ordinary people. Therefore, mortals naturally attach great importance to days like this.
'No wonder, yesterday I felt there were too many people. More today. It turned out that people from the neighborhood came to the city with their children to wait. '
'Spiritual roots? '
'Lingquan! '
Tianyue was shocked, her things were still in the inn! How careless! He hurried back to the inn.
