Before dawn, Tang Jie got up to clean the courtyard.
There was a rustle in the yard, Tang Jie waved the broom one after another, the spiritual energy traveled through the body, passing through every vein, and finally became invisible.
But every time he moved his whole body, there was always a trace of spiritual energy that would eventually be hidden in his blood, making Tang Jie's whole body strong.
This was discovered by Tang Jie after breaking free from the shackles. He discovered that during the cultivation process, the Tibetan Elephant Sutra could not only expand the meridians with spiritual energy, but also melt into the blood and increase strength.
Refining blood, bones, and internal organs with spiritual energy are what can be done only in the realm of transcendence, which is why it is called transcendence, because it is separated from the mortal body. However, the Tibetan Elephant Scriptures were able to train the body when the spiritual platform was first opened, which made Tang Jie surprised and delighted.
At that time, he realized that this was the true hidden function of the Tibetan Elephant Scriptures.
Xu Muyang has always believed that the Tibetan Elephant Scriptures were written by soldiers, and the effect is definitely not as simple as attacking Yumen. Now it seems that he is not wrong. It's just that he mistakenly thought that the function of the Tibetan Elephant Scriptures should be the Ninth Turn of Yumen, but he didn't expect to train the body in advance.
It's no wonder that Xu Muyang would not have thought of it.
Immortals rule the roost by magic, and Yumen is the most important thing. It is directly related to the speed of cultivation. Who would have thought that the Tibetan Elephant Scripture is a different way. As for why this happened, Tang Jie knew that he couldn't find the answer before fully opening the owner's possession.
At this moment, he cleaned the courtyard, and the Tibetan Elephant Scriptures had been practiced again, only to feel that the strength of his whole body rose again. Although he is a teenager, his strength is not much different from that of an adult, and he feels joy in his heart.
The door opened with a bang. Old lady Wu came out of the house and saw that Tang Jie had cleaned the courtyard. She smiled and said, "You kid, get up so early to work again."
Tang Jie already laughed and said, "I was saved by the second elder. This kindness is hard to repay even if it is broken. This cleaning the courtyard is nothing. Grandma, please rest first. I will go to the kitchen to boil water."
"Oh, no need to move. After you came, we both had nothing to do, and we let you do all the work." The old lady said helplessly, "I don't have a place to relax my old bones."
"Then I will knock on the back with you." Tang Jie walked over with a smile, and sat down with the old lady in his arms, actually knocking on her back intently.
He learned this back knocking technique from his father in the previous life. The movements are professional, the technique is in place, the weight and the weight are well grasped, and it makes the old lady extremely comfortable.
When Old Man Wu came out to see the situation, he couldn't help but smiled and said, "I'll really enjoy it. You, you are the old lady of the Wei family."
Mrs. Wu gave her husband a blank glance without curiosity, and smiled: "I see, even the old lady of the Wei family is not as comfortable as I am. Xiao Jie's technique is really good. It makes me feel comfortable all over, and people seem to be young. What a point. Marrying you until now, I didn't expect that I would only enjoy it today, and it would be considered a trip here in vain."
"Since grandma likes it, Xiao Jie will knock for you every day from now on." Tang Jie smiled.
"Okay!" Mrs. Wu had no words to agree.
Tang Jie is a man who knows how to behave. I live here these few days. I clean my house and don’t need any money. I only need three meals a day and a place to stay. Nobody’s servants really do that. How cheap makes the old lady unhappy.
In fact, sometimes it's really simple to like someone. You can talk, behave, and do things. As long as you make things beautiful, you will naturally be happy.
The Wu family’s old couple themselves have not seen the world before. Tang Jie can coax Xu Muyang. It is even easier to deal with this old couple. They waited on the two elders as if they were in heaven, plus they are getting lonely and their children are not around. With Tang Jie's company, the more I look at Tang Jie, the more I love it, as if it were my own children.
"In this case, you will stay here in the future and don't need to go anywhere." Old lady Wu smiled.
"That's not okay, grandma, boy, I have to do something, can't I rely on your second elder to eat every day, right?" Tang Jie replied with a smile.
"You are still young, so you don't rush to do things for a while."
"Don't look at my young age and strength. I can do the work of an adult. Besides, the two elders saved my life and took me in. It is only natural for me to take care of you. How can I eat and drink here for nothing?"
Old man Wu thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's right."
Old lady Wu stared: "What are you talking about, old man? You really want Xiao Jie to go out, can't we still have a baby?"
"Hey, you can't say that." Old man Wu waved his hand and said, "Poor people's children were early homes. If Tang Jie hadn't been suffering all the way, he might not be as clever as he is now. I think it would be good for him to let him go out and do things. If you feel uncomfortable, you can not accept his money, save it for him, and save it for future use by his wife."
Granny Wu thought about it, and she lowered her head and pondered: "That's good, but since it's your intention, then this matter falls on you, the old man. You can find a better guy for Xiao Jie to do it."
"Me?" Old man Wu was dumbfounded and smiled bitterly: "Where can I find something to do for him? Besides, it depends on what he will do."
Tang Jie's knocking hand slowed down, and lowered his head to answer: "Grandpa, I'm poor, but I can't do anything except farming."
"Nothing?" Old man Wu's face collapsed immediately: "This is a bit difficult. Have you not done anything before?"
"I did." Tang Jie said, "I used to be a child servant in one of our houses for a while. The people there still liked me and took good care of me. But the horse thief is here..."
He didn't say any more, his voice was sobbing.
The old couple understood, and sighed together.
The old lady Wu said, "Oh, let's not talk about these sad things. No wonder Xiao Jie, you have cleaned up the house so well, and you have been in a relationship with a big family. That's right, old man!"
Granny Wu suddenly yelled, "Why don't you ask Guan Shi, saying you can't let Xiao Jie enter the Wei Mansion to do something?"
Old man Wu frowned immediately: "This... isn't it good?"
"What's wrong?" Mrs. Wu has already shouted: "You saved the life of Qin Guan. In that winter, unlike Xiao Jie, he almost froze to death at our door? It's a coincidence. , I didn’t expect Xiao Jie to be like this in twenty years. Qin Yuan is now Wei’s chief steward, and it’s not bad for us. Go and talk, I think it can be done!"
"But the Wei family doesn't accept people of unknown origin, even if Qin is in charge, he may not be the master."
"Why is the origin unknown?" Mrs. Wu glared and shouted: "Xiao Jie is now a member of our family. He is... He is... He is my stepson. Is it possible that I, Wu Yu, and the lotus still have an unknown origin? Not enough, just say that he is your bastard who steals your life outside!"
The old man Wu was ashamed when he heard that, "What are you talking about! I'm 50 or 6, and I will give birth to a twelve-year-old child wherever I go. Tell me what you said and tell me how to behave in the neighborhood? , It's... it's... ”
Mrs. Wu curled her lips: "Fortunately, I'm only seventeen this year. Isn't it because you always come to have a son?"
"How can it be the same, I was not at forty at that time, so I still have... and... still have strength." Old man Wu squeezed for a long time, squeezing out the word for strength.
"Xiao Jie is not much smaller than Xing'er."
"Naughty!" Old man Wu was repeatedly shook his hand angrily by his wife.
Hearing the old couple's quarrel, Tang Jie laughed, but the next moment he knelt in front of the old lady Wu and shouted: "Tang Jie is willing to recognize the two elders as foster fathers and mothers, and ask them to take care of them, and do their filial piety from now on!"
"It's still good for this kid to talk." Old lady Wu smiled and picked up Tang Jie: "Eh, good boy, since you are all on your knees, then I'm not polite and get up."
Then he looked at her husband: "Why, are you still not happy? I think Xiao Jie can be your son. It's your blessing!"
"This... This..." Old man Wu shook his head, but after all he was nothing but his wife's heart, and finally nodded: "Okay, okay, I promised."
I think that when I was in the old age, I actually accepted a son. This is interesting, and I can't help but laugh.
"Then why don't you ask Guan Qin to come and sit at home?"
"I will invite it, but this matter can't be rushed. It hasn't been a few days since Tang Jie came to our house, so I have to live a few days first, let the neighbors know his origins, and ask me if he is familiar with each other. Otherwise, Manager Qin asked me We can't tell what is going on with this kid, how can you recommend it to someone else!"
In private, Old Man Wu also felt that he needed to look again. The character of this man cannot be seen in a day or two, and it always takes time to slowly understand.
"That's true." The old lady Wu mumbled, looking at Tang Jie, Tang Jie already smiled: "I'm not in a hurry, as long as the two elders don't think I can just eat and not work."
"Oh, how can I dislike it, do you still do less work? Then it's settled, you, live here well, you have your godfather in everything, don't worry about anything."
"Yes, godmother!"
Just like that, Tang Jie officially settled in Wu's house.
Time flies, and several months have passed in a blink of an eye, and winter has passed and spring has come, and it is another good year.
It has been almost a year since I first met Xu Muyang.
During this year, Tang Jie's head has obviously risen, the meridians have already been expanded, and even the blood is full of spiritual energy. It is this Tibetan Elephant Sutra that seems to have not reached the end of the training, and it automatically moves towards the bones, making the whole person more and more. Strong, but still looks like an ordinary teenager, no one knows that this teenager already has the power to easily overwhelm three or five strong men.
At the same time, Tang Jie has gradually become familiar with the neighbors nearby, and no one on Daliushu Street now knows that the Wu family rescued a kid in distress last winter, and he has now accepted him as a righteous son. Although he is not very old, he is very flexible and well-behaved. From time to time, he will help the neighbor's family to do something. He is so handsome that he attracts the admiration of some girls nearby.
During the Chinese New Year this year, Manager Qin came to Wu's house and brought some gifts. Tang Jie was lucky enough to see a middle-aged man in his forties, who looked mature and stable.
Back then, the Qin manager almost died of freezing in the Wu family. Fortunately, the second elder of the Wu family gave him a bowl of hot porridge to drink, which saved his life. Unexpectedly, a few years ago, he suddenly shuddered and became the chief steward of the Wei family with the master of the Wei family. He did not forget the kindness when he arrived.
Wu Xing, the son of Old Man Wu, was in charge of Qin's blessing. He entered Weifu a few years ago to work, and later went to Xiyue Academy with the young master Weijia as a servant. The old man Wu suddenly had a son who cultivated immortality, and his status rose sharply. Although he has not yet returned from his studies, even if he is just a spiritualist, it is enough to make Old Han Wu worry about eating and drinking, and no one dares to come to the door to cause trouble. As a result, Guan Shi Qin has come more and more diligent.
Today Guanshi Qin came to visit Old Man Wu again, and Old Man Wu asked Tang Jie to prepare a wine and meat reception, and then went to the table for dinner together.
During the meal, Mrs. Wu winked at the old man again and again, but the old man just immersed herself in the meal, as long as she couldn't see it.
Seeing this scene, Guan Shi Qin laughed and said, "Surely there must be something wrong with the two elders? We have been for so many years, so why bother to hide and tuck. If there is anything you can tell, as long as I can do it, I won’t dare to give up. ."
Mrs. Wu gave her husband an angry look, and then said: "He, that's it, he doesn't ask for help easily. No, I asked you to help Xing'er introduce things to do a few years ago, but I still feel embarrassed now. ."
"It's not a trivial matter." Guan Shi Qin said with a smile: "Xing brother has not let down the two elders, and has become a companion. I also hope that I can rely on Xing brother to get the light in the future."
"That's that. If he dares not take care of you, I will take his skin. Even if he becomes an immortal, he is also my son, the flesh that fell from my stomach!" Old lady Wu said with joy, and then grabbed her body. Tang Jie next to him said: "You also know my Xiao Jie, who was picked up from the snow by our old couple a few days ago. Speaking of which, it’s the same fate as you did."
"Yes." Guanshi Qin's eyes flushed as soon as he heard what happened back then, and he felt a bit of sympathy for this kid who had the same fate as him.
The old lady Wu saw that there was a door, and said hurriedly: "However, although this child has a bitter life, he is very clever. During this period of time, he has cleaned up the house. The one who cleans up the house is called a clean one. You have also seen him. I have been with a large family before, but it’s a pity that the family has suffered, and this is down to this point. You see..."
"Do you want me to take him into the Wei Mansion?" Guan Shi has understood what the old lady meant.
"Yes!" The old lady didn't hide it, and simply said: "Do you think it can be done?"
Guan Shi thought for a while to answer: "It's not impossible to be reasonable, but the day he came is still short and he doesn't understand enough, and the Weifu is not short of people now."
The old lady's face collapsed instantly.
Guanshi Qin said again: "But this kid is clever and smart, and I saw it, as if he made this meal today, right?"
"That is, knowing that you are coming, Xiao Jie has been busy all day."
Guan Shi smiled, and looked at Tang Jie: "You want to come to Wei's house, I can understand. But you should know that Wei's door is not easy to enter. First tell me, what on earth do you want to enter the Wei's house?"
After thinking for a while, Tang Jie replied: "I want to earn some household income and make up for the two elders. His two elders saved me and I want to repay my gratitude. On the other hand, I am very envious of Wu Xing’s ability to follow Wei’s elder brother. Go to Clean Moon Academy, if possible, I hope I can use my own efforts..."
Guanshi Qin nodded: "Very well, you didn't lie."
The world has never been fair.
There are only 1,500 places in Xiyue Academy every year, and I don't know how many people break their heads and want to squeeze in.
But for ordinary people, it is hard to compare to the sky. For those nobles, it is often just a simple and extremely trivial matter. Some large families can even easily get multiple places, and these excess places are often used for subordinates.
This is because all sects have regulations that disciples are not allowed to bring servants when entering the academy. Therefore, in order to ensure that their children’s lives are not wronged, the nobles often come up with compromise methods, such as sending servants in as students. Students are really servants, that is, accompanying readers.
Of course, it is not just about serving. The servants are given the opportunity to cultivate immortality because of the family. They must also be grateful to the family. Even if they have achievements in the future, they will often continue to serve the family.
Most of the more than a dozen immortal cultivators raised by the Jin family came from this way. These people have higher loyalty than those hired outside, and it can be said that they share the same glory with the family.
Because of its high economic status, Lingzhou has made a lot of dedication to the Moon Cultivation. Therefore, every year, one hundred and twenty places can be obtained from the Moon Cultivation Academy, and 40 of the hundred and twenty places are in Canglong. House.
These forty places are usually divided by the five big families first, and the rest is for outsiders to grab the rest.
The Wei family can have one quota each year, which can be accumulated through mutual replacement. In this way, multiple quotas can be obtained at a time, usually by choosing a direct line and bringing two or three servants.
Therefore, being able to become a servant of a big family can be said to have a chance to rise to the sky in one step.
This is exactly why Tang Jie has to work hard to enter Wei's house.
Today, the young master of the Wei family has successfully entered the school, but it is said that the entry is not good, the chance of entering the realm of escape is not great, that is, he will not be able to graduate, and he will only be a spiritualist throughout his life.
Although a spiritualist is also a cultivator, he can use magic techniques, but after all, he is still a mortal body, with a limited life span and limited ability.
If the Wei family wants to keep the family long-term, they must have their own true immortal cultivator, who at least must be a spiritual master, so the hope is placed on the young master. Even if he can't, his companion can be successful. Okay, half of my family. Generally speaking, for such people, major families often use marriages.
For this reason, don't look at the low status of the servants. Once they become companions, the family will be good to them to win over the hearts of the people.
The young master Wei Tianchong is eleven years old this year and will be able to enroll in a few years.
This is Tang Jie's chance to enter the Moon Clearing Academy, and it's the only chance!
But this is no secret, and many people know it.
For this reason, it is never difficult for large families to recruit servants, especially those of Tang Jie's age who can just enter the academy. Every year, I don’t know how many people want to enter with their relationships and money. Even extremes. Even if you don't pay wages, what you ask for is an opportunity.
Therefore, the Jinwei family itself is extremely difficult. In addition to having to be innocent, it also has to be connected. And everyone's purpose for entering the Wei's house was not a secret. Tang Jie didn't need to conceal it, let alone conceal it.
As for whether he can stand out and be selected as the attendant after entering, it is up to Tang Jie himself.
For Tang Jie, it is certainly not easy to stand out from the many candidate servants, it is always easier than to stand out from a hundred thousand people.
Speaking of myself, I am also an adult in terms of knowledge.
At this moment, when he heard Tang Jie's answer, Guan Shi Qin nodded in satisfaction: "In this case, I remember this thing in my heart. There is no shortage of people in the Weifu for the time being. You can wait for the opportunity to come. I will recommend you. As for whether you can succeed or not, it depends on your own performance."
"Thank you Qin Da steward!" Tang Jie bowed to the end excitedly.
With Qin Yuan's recommendation, he has a chance to get started.
For Tang Jie, the road ahead is still very long, but no matter what, a glimmer of dawn has already appeared.
