The Path Toward Heaven

Chapter 14: Another year

Views:

In the dead of night, Jing Jiu's small courtyard welcomed the first guest other than Liu Shisui.

He knew that the other party would come, so he stood in the yard and waited in advance.

Not to show respect, but because he is not used to others entering his cave, although the cave he lives in is far from being a cave.

Master Lu didn't know this, and was somewhat pleased with his intelligence and etiquette.

"The answers you gave to your colleagues in the morning were all correct."

Master Lu took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and said, "It's just that you solved the last problem wrong."

Jing Jiu was a little puzzled, thinking how could he be wrong, took the paper and looked at it, and finally understood what was going on.

"After understanding, you failed to understand this passage in the formula. This passage is a new interpretation of this book."

Master Lu looked at him and said with a gentle expression: "Of course it's not your fault. In fact, the Qingshan sect's understanding of this book has been wrong for many years."

Jing Jiu said: "No, Zongmen's previous understanding is not wrong, but this solution is wrong."

Master Lu smiled and said, "This is a new solution made by my uncle himself back then, how could it be wrong?"

There are two revisions between the current Qingshan sect's introductory formula and that of the past, both of which were written by Jingyang.

Of course Jing Jiu knew about this matter, and he also knew that one of the revisions was wrong.

"Anyone can make mistakes, no matter whether he is an outer disciple or a master uncle."

Jing Jiu said.

Master Lu's expression changed slightly, thinking how ridiculous these words were.

He thought again in the morning, when Jing Jiu said that the sect's way of educating the outer disciples was wrong, and the rules should be changed...

"Your savvy and talent are indeed very good, and your thinking is even more meticulous, but this is not the reason for you to be presumptuous."

Master Lu looked at him and said in a deep voice: "You must know that my disciples of the Qingshan Sword Sect must not be without arrogance, but absolutely must not have arrogance."

Are you arrogant

Thinking of the two modifications in the entry formula, Jing Jiu felt a little emotional.

Back then, Jingyang was indeed the most arrogant person in the world, that's why he made such and such mistakes.

Seeing his silence, Master Lu thought he had listened, and said earnestly, "If a tree grows in the forest, the wind will destroy it; if the sword rises from the nine peaks, it will face the strong wind. If you want to go further on the road of cultivation, you should learn to How to restrain one's pride, even if you want to help your fellow disciples, you can use other methods, but you can't break the rules."

"But this rule is really stupid." Jing Jiu said: "The Qing Rongfeng was born in Nanzhai, and she didn't know the script of the imperial dynasty. When she was in the outer sect, she couldn't understand the entry method at all. If no one taught her how to read, wouldn't the Qingshan sect Will you miss this genius?"

Hearing his previous words, Lu Shihao was very angry, and was about to reprimand him, when he suddenly heard his last words, he couldn't help being slightly startled.

"How did you know?"

This story about the current peak master of Qingrong Peak is not anecdote, but just anecdote, but Jing Jiu is only an outside disciple, so where did he hear it

Jing Jiu thought that he would tell you that he watched that girl practice calligraphy every night with her own eyes

Master Lu thought to himself, could it be that this young man, like Zhuo Rusui and those young fellows on Liangwang Peak, are all pawns laid out in advance by the sect

This time, which peak's martial uncle and martial uncle played the chess game

Time is like water.

In the blink of an eye, it is a year.

It's spring time again.

Liu Shisui walked out of the sword hall, and walked along the stone path to the depths of the forest.

Dozens of outer disciples among the cliffs were already used to seeing this scene, they knew where he was going, they didn't think it was different, and greeted him one after another.

Liu Shisui nodded and smiled back.

He is now twelve years old, in a sense, he should be called a teenager.

His appearance is still so simple and amiable, but his eyes are calmer, his temperament has changed the most, and he walks with a smile, very calm.

Watching Liu Shisui walk into the small courtyard, the disciples got together and started discussing again.

As the key training object of the Qingshan Sect, Liu Shisui's every move was watched.

Just one night later, everyone knew that he had applied for the inner sect examination.

Only when the realm of embracing the spirit is complete, can one interact with the sword embryo and be eligible to enter the inner sect.

The problem is that Liu Shisui has only been in the Green Mountain Sect for a year.

For countless years, only the master-uncle who was rumored to have ascended into the inner sect only took half a year.

Zhuo Rusui is the closed disciple of the head of the Qingshan Sect. Now he is retreating at Tianguang Peak. It took him a year and a half to enter the inner sect from Beihexuan.

It took a whole year for a genius like Zhao Layue.

No one thought that Liu Shisui would be able to pass the inner sect assessment this time. Although he was also a one-in-a-million inborn Taoist, in the eyes of his disciples, he was always inferior to his senior sister.

There is a view that if Liu Shisui was not too distracted by other things, his chances of success should be much higher.

The so-called other things are naturally those things in Jing Jiu's yard.

Because of these things, many people were very dissatisfied with Jing Jiu, thinking that he delayed Liu Shisui's cultivation, completely ignorant of the seriousness, and even felt that he was jealous of Liu Shisui doing this on purpose.

Of course, some people didn't see it that way, and they were very grateful to Jing Jiu, because Jing Jiu didn't listen to Master Lu's advice, and would occasionally help those disciples solve some problems.

Master Lu also gradually gave up his attention to Jing Jiu, and no longer thought that he was a disciple selected in advance by a big man on a certain peak.

Because Jing Jiu is really too lazy.

He had never participated in the routine inspection of the outskirts of Qingshan by the outer disciples, and he didn't even bother to find a reason to ask for leave. Every time he had to trouble Liu Shisui to intercede.

No one has seen him practice body training.

Such a person, no matter how profound his knowledge, no matter how outstanding his understanding, will eventually be nothing.

Walking into the small courtyard, looking at Jing Jiu on the bamboo recliner, the calm smile on Liu Shisui's face turned into a helpless wry smile.

During this year, he persuaded Jing Jiu many times, but Jing Jiu didn't listen, and he still lay on the bamboo chair every day in the sun, dazed.

It's just that I don't know when, there is an extra porcelain plate next to the bamboo chair, and there are some clean sand in the porcelain plate.

Liu Shisui carefully observed that there were more and more sand grains in the porcelain plate, and now it has occupied one-third of the area.

I don't know what this porcelain dish and these grains of sand are used for. Jing Jiu didn't explain it, but it can be seen that he attaches great importance to this thing, even ten years old won't let it touch it.

"My lord, I went to talk to Master Lu last night... about taking part in the inner sect assessment."

Liu Shisui looked at Jing Jiu nervously and said, "I really thought I could do it before I said it."

Jing Jiu glanced at him and said, "It's been more than a year and you still can't do it, so that's the problem."

Liu Shisui came to his senses. Back in the village, the young master had taught him how to breathe and breathe. It was like practicing before entering the Green Mountain Sect. He was faintly disappointed, so even if he could pass the inner sect assessment, he would not be the fastest, but then he became happy again, feeling much more confident.

Jing Jiu said, "They're all born with Taoism, you can't be worse than that... anyone."

Liu Shisui said helplessly, "Senior Sister Zhao Layue."

Jing Jiu said, "Oh."

The air in the small courtyard was suddenly silent.

It wasn't because the topic couldn't go on, but because Liu Shisui thought of many other things.

It has been a year since he came to Qingshanzong, and he has come into contact with many people and things that cannot be imagined in the mountain village. He is growing at an unimaginable speed.

The more he learned, the more disturbed he became.

Whether it's the breath in the mountain village or the many things that happened later, it shows that Jing Jiu has many secrets.

Could those secrets be the problem? Is it just their problem or the problem of Qingshan Sect

After being silent for an unknown amount of time, Liu Shisui finally asked in a low voice, "My lord, are you a spy from another sect?"
