Qingyang Temple, quiet room.
Ouyang Shuo and Daoist Ge sat cross-legged facing each other, with a small coffee table in the middle, and Daoist Ge was making tea. As for Bing'er, she was brought by the Taoist boy to play in the Taoist temple.
Daoist Ge handed a cup of tea to Ouyang Shuo.
Ouyang Shuo took it, took a sip, and exclaimed: "Good tea!" The tea is pekoe tea sent by Ouyang Shuo, and the water used to make the tea is Daoist Ge's secret recipe. Therefore, drinking the clear tea has a special charm .
Ge Yan smiled without saying a word, stared at Ouyang Shuo, and said just now: "My lord, have you had a chance recently? From my lord, Pindao felt a trace of my Taoist aura."
Ouyang Shuo was startled, this Ge Yan was really not simple, he could actually feel the inner energy of "Huang Di Nei Jing" in his body. During this period of time, he has practiced diligently and has reached the second level.
On the second floor of the "Huangdi Neijing", the upper limit of internal force value is raised to 1,000 points. However, Ouyang Shuo's weekly cycle can only be increased to five times a day. In other words, at this rate, he would need 180 days, or half a year, to cultivate to the third level.
Ouyang Shuo couldn't help but feel anxious at such a slow speed of practice. He also wondered if his method of practice was wrong. You know, the "Huangdi Neijing" has twelve layers. At this rate, even if he practiced for ten years, he might not be able to reach the top level.
Ge Yan is a member of Taoism, and the "Huangdi Neijing" can also be classified into Taoism. Does he have any methods to succeed? Ouyang Shuo's heart skipped a beat, perhaps, his opportunity was right in front of him.
Ouyang Shuo didn't dare to be negligent, and said sincerely: "To tell you the truth, Taoist priest, some time ago, I was fortunate to obtain the "Huangdi Neijing·Cultivation of Qi". After practicing for a while, I found that the speed of cultivation was abnormally slow, so I asked the Taoist priest for guidance."
Ge Yan was stunned, and said with a smile: "My lord is blessed. The "Huangdi Neijing" is also at the top of the Taoist classics. If you don't enter the Taoist school and don't read the "Tao Jing", it will naturally be difficult to practice."
Ouyang Shuo nodded, that's why.
Ouyang Shuo stood up and bowed to Daoist Ge, "Please also ask Daoist to accept me as an apprentice."
Daoist Ge received it on his side, and asked Ouyang Shuo to sit down again, and said, "My lord is a lord, a first-class earl, with a noble status, and he is destined to enjoy the wealth and honor in the world, and a poor man dare not take it under his family."
Ouyang Shuo was a little anxious and was about to get up again to salute.
Daoist Ge stopped him, "My lord, don't worry. Although the poor Taoist can't bring you into the Taoist sect, he can teach you the "Tao Jing". After you go back, you only need to study the "Tao Jing" by yourself, and you will definitely gain something."
Ouyang Shuo was certain in his heart, as long as there is a way.
The two sat down again, and Daoist Ge began to teach Ouyang Shuo the "Tao Jing".
This lecture is two hours. Finally, a system prompt sounded in Ouyang Shuo's ear.
"System prompt: Congratulations to the player Qiyue Wuyi for receiving the guidance of Ge Daochang, the master of the Qingyang temple, to comprehend the "Tao Sutra", understand the way of heaven, and suddenly realize the method of cultivation. Please explore the specific content by yourself."
What the system said was specious, and Ouyang Shuo didn't know what effect it had. Only after he went back and studied the "Huangdi Neijing" did he know.
Near noon, Ouyang Shuo took Bing'er and left after having a meal at Qingyang Temple. Before leaving, Daoist Ge presented Ouyang Shuo with a "Tao Jing" for him to study by himself.
On the way, Bing'er sat on the horseback and asked curiously: "Brother, what did you talk about with that Taoist uncle in the quiet room this morning? After chatting for so long, Bing'er was bored."
What a curious little guy, Ouyang Shuo said with a smile, "We're talking about the way of cultivation."
"What is cultivation?"
"Cultivation means adults go to school." Ouyang Shuo could only explain it this way.
"Oh, so my brother is in class." Hearing this, Bing'er lost interest.
Back at the Lord's Mansion, Ouyang Shuo asked Bing'er to find Zisu and let Zisu play with her. I went back to the room by myself and started to study the "Huangdi Neijing".
After running a weekly cycle, Ouyang Shuo was overjoyed.
It turns out that he can increase his internal strength by 4 points by running a week now. In other words, in a disguised form, the speed of cultivation was increased by four times. Ouyang Shuo didn't dare to slack off, he continued to work hard and practiced again.
After finishing the fifth cycle, there was a slight pain in the meridians, and I had to stop. It seems that Daoist Ge's guidance has improved the quality of his internal energy, but has not increased the number of cycles.
Even so, Ouyang Shuo was very satisfied. After all, it used to take half a year to cultivate to the third level, but now it only takes one and a half months to complete. As long as he persists in studying the "Tao Jing", he will definitely be able to increase his cultivation speed again, and his future will be bright.
After the practice was over, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.
Ouyang Shuo walked out of the room, returned to the front yard, and began to deal with today's government affairs.
…
On June 13, Lingxi Town was successfully promoted and became the fifth first-level county in China.
Two days later, the population of Shanhai County reached 20,000.
Ouyang Shuo walked into the meeting room, meditating on the upgrade of the territory, a white light flashed, and in the middle of the meeting room, a golden stone tablet slowly rose from the ground. He pressed his right hand on the front of the stele, and a system notification sounded.
"System prompt: Detect the upgrade conditions of Shanhai County..."
"Condition 1: The population reaches the upper limit of 20,000 people, meeting the requirements!"
"Condition 2: All basic buildings are completed and meet the requirements!"
"Condition 3: The title of lord is at least second-class earl, which meets the requirements!"
"System prompt: Congratulations to the player Qiyue Wuyi. All the upgrade requirements of Shanhai County have been met. Do you want to upgrade?"
"upgrade!"
On the stele, golden light shot up into the sky, exploded in the sky, turned into a ball of golden halo, and spread towards the surroundings. The halo extended to the new edge of the territory and disappeared again.
"System Announcement: Congratulations to player Qiyue Wuyi for becoming the first lord in China to be upgraded to a second-level county seat. The reward is 2200 points of merit!"
"System Announcement: Congratulations to player Qiyue Wuyi for becoming the first lord in China to be upgraded to a second-level county seat. The reward is 2200 points of merit!"
"System Announcement: Congratulations to player Qiyue Wuyi for becoming the first lord in China to be upgraded to a second-level county seat. The reward is 2200 points of merit!"
Shanhai County is one step ahead again, becoming the only second-level county in China.
"System prompt: Congratulations to the player Qiyue Wuyi for upgrading his territory to a second-level county seat. Three basic buildings of the second-level county seat will be randomly selected, and the player can choose one of them."
"System prompt: Three buildings were randomly selected to complete, namely the Theater Building, the Shanchuan Altar, and the Sheji Altar. Please choose!"
"Choose a theater!"
"System prompt: The building is being automatically generated, please check it yourself!"
A flash of white light flashed, and the golden stele slowly sank into the ground again. Ouyang Shuo took the opportunity to check the properties of Shanhai County.
