[The system is starting to pick up, please wait a moment...]
[Picked up successfully, the host received one thousand catties of props "gold", which has been stored in the storage space. 】
[Gold: The burial object of mortal emperors, a precious metal in the eyes of ordinary people, is of little use in the path of cultivation. All tracking spells and restrictions on it have been erased, so the host can use it with confidence. 】
Everyone is dead, so this gold is considered ownerless, right?
Xu Sui thought that stealing tributes from other people's graves was the limit, but he didn't expect that there were masters in this world.
This time, Tongzi got into other people's graves to eat tribute.
By the way, Xu Sui doesn't have any need for gold now.
"Brother, it looks like it's going to rain. Let's go to the ruined temple in front to take shelter from the rain."
Xie Yushu glanced at the gloomy sky and felt the changes in the surrounding spiritual energy. It was not difficult to judge the changes in climate.
After bidding farewell to Li Qingyi, the two of them planned to follow Li Qingyi's instructions before leaving, and then try to go out and have a career after practicing in Xiaoshui Country to the core formation stage.
After some thought, the two decided to settle down in Fanyang City, the capital of Xiaoshui Kingdom.
There is the princess residence of Xie Yushu. Although she is a little transparent among the royal family, she still has all the living standards of a royal princess.
In the past, some members of the royal family went to the mountains to practice spiritual practice. After achieving success in the future, they would help the royal family.
Therefore, the royal family will not take back Xie Yushu's princess mansion. Even if it is vacant, it will be kept there until news of her death comes.
With servants serving in the princess's house, one can worry less about daily life and focus on spiritual practice.
As for the resources for cultivation, there is no need to worry. There are all kinds of elixirs, talismans, magic weapons, and spiritual stones on the mountain. Even if the two of them stay at home in the next few years, they can rely on the pile of resources to complete the elixir formation period.
"Boom~"
There was constant thunder in the sky, and heavy rain seemed to be about to pour down. The moment they arrived in front of the ruined temple, they felt that there was someone inside.
At first they didn't think much about it. After all, it was the Xiaoshui National Congress Examination, and many students came to Beijing to take the exam.
Meeting a scholar on the road was not unusual. They had also thought of their words for meeting a stranger, but when they saw the scene in front of them, their brains shut down and they forgot all about the words they had prepared.
A bonfire was swaying in the ruined temple. A handsome scholar was holding a rope, and the other end of the rope fell on a young girl.
The girl's clothes were messy and thin at the same time. She was wearing all the clothes as if she were not wearing them. She was also hung in the air in a shameful manner. It was really a feast for Xu Sui's eyes as soon as he entered the door.
"Senior...brother, what are they doing?"
Xie Yushu's face immediately turned red. She covered her eyes and didn't want to look, but judging from the active fluctuations in her soul.
I'm afraid this guy can't see it more clearly than Xu Sui. After all, in this era, the letter circle thing is a bit out of line. It's no wonder that Xie Yushu has some exploratory spirit.
There was no way, she really wanted to make progress.
"Brother, we came at the wrong time. We are destined to meet again."
"No, you came just in time."
It was obvious that such a private matter was exposed, but the scholar did not feel the slightest bit ashamed. Instead, he seemed to want to get Xu Sui and Xie Yushu to join in.
Is this some kind of party in a ruined temple?
Brother, I didn’t expect you to be an open-air fan.
"This is not what you think. That woman is a painted ghost who just wanted to absorb my yang energy."
The scholar seemed to have noticed the misunderstanding between the two, so he hurriedly began to explain.
After some explanations between the two parties, Xu Sui roughly understood that the name of the person in front of him was Ying Xiaowo, and he claimed to be a scholar who came to Beijing to take the exam.
When I arrived at the ruined temple, I saw that the sky was dark and there was no village or shop in front of me, so I planned to stay here for a night and rest for a while, but I didn't expect that I was met by a female ghost.
In fact, not all scholars who encounter female ghosts will develop into A Chinese Ghost Story.
At least when I got to Yingxiao, I immediately accelerated and entered the field of letter circles.
"You're a scholar with a lot of cultivation, but you still have to pass the imperial examination to become an official? It feels like it's a bit unnecessary."
In fact, it is not uncommon for monks to become officials. There is no rule in this world that the emperor prohibits cultivation.
After all, cultivation requires concentration, and it may take hundreds of years to stay in silence. If a certain emperor is really expected to ascend to the immortal world, he would have given the Zen position to his son long ago and devoted himself to cultivation.
Just like the emperor of the Yuhua Dynasty, although he has not yet ascended to the throne, he has long since stopped directly intervening in government affairs.
The government affairs of the Yuhua Dynasty were also handed over to several princes in turn to supervise the country, allowing the princes to use their luck to practice and at the same time test their abilities.
In this case, there will naturally be monks in the court, that is, mortals who have entered the official position through the imperial examination. As their positions are improved, they will also be given elixirs to improve their realm and serve the court longer.
The truth is, if you catch someone who is useful, you will use it to death.
However, that is a treatment only available to relatively large countries, and Xiaoshui Country is really not in the spotlight.
Even if a monk becomes an official in Xiaoshui Kingdom, there is no need to go through the old-fashioned method of imperial examination. It is more efficient to find someone to recommend him.
"You two don't know something. What I practice is the Confucian method of entering the world. What I emphasize is to enter the world first and then leave it. Experience life like a mortal, which is the place of practice."
In fact, Confucianism is just like regular monks. They practice by breathing in spiritual energy. However, they cannot understand the true meaning of Confucianism skills and will encounter bottlenecks in breaking through in the future.
Therefore, Confucian monks often need to refine their hearts in the world of mortals and understand the spirit of the sages before they can more easily step into the next realm.
It's just that by that time, their realm is too high, and it is difficult for them to integrate into the world of mortals and gain insights.
So someone came up with a way to do the opposite, allowing Confucian monks to enter the world of mortals when their realm was low.
This will not only make it easier to integrate into the world of mortals, but also allow you to complete the steps of rebirth as your cultivation level improves.
Since then, a mutually successful relationship has been formed between Confucian academies and the imperial court, the most representative of which are the Yuhua Dynasty and Jixia Academy.
"If that's the case, does it mean that Brother Ying doesn't want to go to a big country like Yuhua Dynasty?"
"Brother Xu, you don't have to speak if you don't know how to speak."
In response to the smile, I managed to maintain a smile. The veins in my fists bulged out in my sleeves. I really wanted to ask Xu Sui why he didn't join the Taishang Immortal Sect.
It can’t be that you don’t want to go, right?
Xie Yushu on the side couldn't help covering her mouth and snickering, thinking that her senior brother would really say anything to talk this guy to death.
However, if you meet a monk in the wild, it is better not to interact with him if possible.
Now that the conversation has reached this point, if the scholar is still entangled, then they will suspect that the other party has ulterior motives.
